A new source for New York-style cheesecake has found a home in the area.

Kristina Kasky, of Waterford, founded Saratoga Cheesecake Company last year and has recently begun supplying cheesecakes to area restaurants.

Kasky, 35, is a mother of three who holds a degree in cosmetology and says she has been baking for years.

“I’ve done it since I was a child and decided to take it one step further,” she said. “I was a stay-at-home mom for nine years and I just decided it was time to do something.”

She bakes three days a week out of a commercial test kitchen in her home to produce 13 to 21 cakes each day. Each 10-inch cake is frozen, boxed and distributed to restaurants like Longfellows and the Olde Bryan Inn.

The company serves about 25 clients regularly, Kasky said.

She would like the wholesale business to eventually support a specialty shop downtown, where she would sell cakes and other baked goods.

The current selection of cakes features flavors like caramel apple, cookie dough, pumpkin, carrot and Irish cream, many decked out with elaborate toppings, cream and sauces.
